SANTAQUIN VETERAN FIREFIGHTER NAMED 2014 RESCUER OF THE YEAR BY AAA


Pictured (right): Scott Bernards, an 11-year veteran firefighter who currently serves the Santaquin Fire Department, was named Rescuer of the Year in Utah by AAA, with a room full of his peers and family members watching on inside the Santaquin Publilc Safety building Tuesday evening, October 21 . While on vacation in November 2013, Bernards rescued his 80-year-old aunt from a fire that destroyed her Idaho family home and sustained injuries as he helped extinguish the blaze alongside the local fire department. At the ceremony, AAA Utah  awarded $10,000 in Bernards’ name to a nonprofit rescue organization of his choice, the Santaquin Fire/EMS Association.
